4 star Empire Palace Hotel Rome is a splendid hotel that conveniently lies in the historic centre of the Italian capital. The hotel opened its doors in 1999, but the building in which it is housed dates way back to 1870, when it was originally built for an aristocratic Venetian family. The Venetian style can also be seen from the exterior's Neo-Gothic décor with pointed arches and double lancet windows. The Empire Palace Hotel offers a choice of over 100 rooms, all of various sizes and each of which is perfectly equipped with the best of today's creature comforts. Other facilities at this hotel in Rome include a restaurant, American bar with an outside courtyard, a piano bar, and Wi-Fi internet throughout the common areas.
